I have been waiting to share this wedding with you guys for a while.  Every time I see these images they just make my heart smile.  I remember how Kia and her mom knew their vision and how much fun we had making all the decisions for the big day.  Every meeting never felt like work, it just felt like you were getting together with friends to create one special party!  I puffy heart them! 

We did not miss one details, from the letterpress invitations with the Atlanta skyline, to the decor and color brightening up Centennial Park for the ceremony, it was truly a fabulous day!

Take a peek of some of these amazing images from Climie and Co.

I had to ask Fatimah several times if she was a model!  I mean her height and her eyes needs to be in a magazine!  I am so grateful that their entire wedding can be found in the current issue of Bridal Guide.  I will share more of that soon.

In the meantime I have to tell you how great it was to work with Fatimah and Jean on their wedding day.  Super laid back and probably did not know what their wedding was going to look like until they walked into Ventanas.  That kind of trust that they had in this team is why we do what we do!

The couple are now expecting their bundle of joy and we continue to pray for their many blessings!

Alright folks, we have an amazing fall wedding to share with you.  Just picture getting married on the docks by Piedmont Park then traveling to a great brewery with private dining area for you and your guests!  It was so amazing to have the guests travel in style on the Georgia Tech Trolley!

Hollie from Lytle Foto did an amazing job capturing the true essence of who Rebecca and Ann are as a couple.  We wish them many more years of married bliss!

We had a blast working on our first wedding over at Montaluce winery.  Julie was a bride that knew what she wanted and gathered all of her details in order to bring her vision to life.  The end result was a fabulous wedding that was true to Julie and James’ personality.

Complete with cute and one of a kind details, everyone danced the night away!

Julie and James were also featured on the Bride’s Cafe HERE and on Essence HERE.

Tyeema is just one of those girls that walks around with a smile on her face.  Even if you had not such great news to share, there was no way you were going to damper her mood.  She just made everyone happy everywhere she went.  Gerik is just amazing and makes sure to take care of Tyeema and be there when she needs him!

They were married this October at Evleven 15 Events, and boy did her crowd party!

Today is Christy and Tony’s wedding anniversary so it is only fitting that I share their wedding pictures with you.  There is something about each and everyone of my client’s that I will never forget. Unfortunately this one is a sad reason.  We lost Christy’s mom a few days before the wedding.  My heart has never broken into so many pieces for one of my brides. It hurt me to no end to know how much pain Christy had to deal with on a day that was just so joyous.  But we celebrated just the way her mother would have wanted us.  No one pretended that the previous days events did not occur, in fact Christy’s brother walked down with a bouquet which we placed in the seat where her mother would have sat. Just precious.

Christy and Tony, I hope that this last year in Florida has served you well, if I know anything about you two, it did!  Enjoy your anniversary loves!  xoxo eb

In a couple of days it will be Sean and Michelle’s one year anniversary.  I cannot believe how time is flying, remind me to have a conversation with God to ask him to just slow it down a bit.  Back to Michelle and Sean, I heart these two, I really do. As a wedding planner I do not get the opportunity to hang out with my clients as much as I like and I plan to change that in 2012!  After all they are much more than clients to me, there is no way we will lose communication because of work!

Michelle and Sean although I don’t get to connect as much as I like, please know that I tell your story often. So much so that I am about to share it now.

Michelle and Sean visited 200 Peachtree one day, although they went to many venues after, Michelle just knew in her heart this venue was for her.  Since Sean is an accountant he gave me a budget we had to stick too, and another venue just worked out to fit our budget a bit better.  Michelle was ok with giving up her dream place just to make it work. As far as she was concerned Sean and I put down a deposit on venue B and we were moving forward with the wedding plans. Being the angel that Michelle is, she was ok with this, after all all that mattered is that she was marrying her best friend.

But Sean being an amazing man that he is, did not want his lovely wife to be to sacrifice the place that won her heart, we moved forward with the venue of her dreams and held our little secret for weeks.  I think Sean couldn’t take it anymore and squealed on himself! Yup he is just that amazing.

I never considered it work when working with Melissa and Thea.  Melissa may be one of the sweetest souls I know, that could not even get upset at anyone if she tried. Thea just completes her in every way as they embark on journey after journey together.  Since her mother has affectionately adopted me into the family, be prepared to see this couple a lot more on the blog in the upcoming months!

Melissa began her day getting ready at one of the most gorgeous spa’s in all of Atlanta, Spa Sentio. While the girls took their time to get ready, they sipped on champagne and transformed into fabulous divas. The ceremony took place at the beautiful Christ the King Cathedral then the guests headed to the Foundry at Puritan Mill for a night full of dancing.  If you ever want to see what 400 people on the dance floor looks like, peep below!

We made sure that no detail was missed as we carried the color scheme from the clothes that Melissa wore in her save the date picture, to the mini pom poms we threw at the grand exit. It was great to see how the tangerine and plum worked so well together (we were ahead of the curve with the Pantone 2012 colors!).

Congrats to Melissa and Thea for being published in The Knot Magazine. Melissa and Thea we are forever grateful for being able to be apart of your big day! xoxo
